Litchfield June 4 1827 —

Dear Sir

Your secand very acceptable package
of plants arrived in due time after being sent — I
was exceedingly rejoiced at seeing many of the
specimens which it contained, as they gave me an
opportunity of examining several genera new to
me. You then asked me to transmit you a list
of the species. I wished; it would hardly be prac-
ticable as I have so few Southern plants —
Continue to send me as you have done, & I shall
be fully satisfied. I want much, however, to see
your species of Hedysarum. I shall subjoin
to this letter a list of 50 species scattered thro'
your book that would be particularly valuable.

I have just dispatched to you, by the
way of New Haven, a small box of minerals which
I hope will reach you in safety —

I have had a species of Prinos from the neigh-
bourhood of Augusta sent me, which is not in
your book. It resembles the description of the
P. montana of Jamaica — Yours with esteem
John P. Brace
